As the 4K Dolby Atmos Version of Edge of No Tomorrow hits the streets on July 5, a lot of enthusiasts are bracing themselves for a bit of a let down on the low-end side of the audio equation.

I did a quick comparison of the original BD release and the K-scape 4K version, and found that the infamous opening bass notes have been altered (read: changed for the betterment of systems across this great land ouf ours!).

If you can see a visualization of the two versions, here:


As you can, the super deep infrasonics have largely been scratched. That said, the Atmos track is rock solid!

Disappointing. I would have thought it would have been improved not reduced.

Definitely disappointing but I will most likely still buy the 4k in the future for the atmos.
